The Frozen Coffee Cherry Experiment, originally uploaded by sweetmarias.
Because I have so much spare time and hardly any coffee samples are arriving at this time of year (LOL) I took on the crazy frozen coffee cherryOriginally coffee literature referred to the fruit of the tree as a "berry" but in time it became a cherry. It is of course neither. Nor is the... experiment. These are 07-08 harvest coffee fruits that were picked ripe and frozen whole. I had tried cuppingCupping is a method of tasting coffee by steeping grounds in separate cups for discrete amounts of ground coffee, to reveal good flavors and defects to their fullest.... this once before and nearly vomitted but the results from these 6 samples by Aida at Kilimanjaro were really nice. I was surprised mostly by the bodyAssociated with and sensed by mouthfeel, body is sense of weight and thickness of the brew, caused by the percentage of soluble solids in the cup, including all.... Tons of it. No doubt there has been some physical breakdown of the coffee that results in more solids in the cup but the flavors were good. Funky but good. – Tom
